Frequency VHF

The VHF frequency on the microphone is a high frequency wave , the VHF system is capable of transmitting and receiving data at high frequencies within 50 m with wavelengths larger than UHF. This frequency range is usually set from 150 – 216 Mhz .

Frequency UHF

The UHF frequency on the microphone is super high frequency , the UHF system is capable of transmitting and receiving data at very high frequencies in the range of over 100 m with wavelengths smaller than VHF. The frequency band of microphones using UHF waves has many ranges, the common ranges are 470 – 698 Mhz, 698 – 806 Mhz and 902 – 928 Mhz .

Both frequency levels on this microphone are established by manufacturers on the wireless microphone sets widely sold on the market, which many people choose to buy and use in a variety of lives.

Compare the pros and cons of VHF and UHF . frequency microphones

Criteria	VHF . frequency microphone	UHF frequency microphone
Advantage	– The application for wireless microphones is neat, convenient, not entangled when moving, the design is somewhat more monotonous than the UHF frequency microphone model. – Use less battery . – Cheaper price.	– Applied for all kinds of wireless microphones, without worrying about tangled wires , entanglement when moving, slim design, more beautiful than VHF frequency microphones. – Large frequency range, more diverse than VHF frequency microphones, should be used stably, limiting interference, howling . – Wide range of use , good for use even in situations with many obstacles. – Diversified frequency range , used in the same area without worrying about overlapping waves.
Defect	– The frequency range is only from 150 – 216 Mhz, so the microphone used is more susceptible to noise and howling . – Narrow range of use , often works well in open spaces, with obstacles that are easily separated.	– Consumes more battery than VHF frequency mirco, so it is necessary to reserve more batteries to meet usage needs. – The cost is double the price of VHF frequency mirco.

Should I use VHF or UHF frequency microphones?

Wireless microphones VHF and UHF frequencies, each with its own advantages and disadvantages, buyers should consider their needs, financial conditions and usage circumstances to choose a microphone model at the right frequency for them.

However, you should choose a VHF wireless microphone when:

– Use for home sound system or use space of 50 m for meetings, karaoke, convenient entertainment without fear of unstable signal, loss of signal.

– Want to buy cheap microphone.

– Choose microphone with low battery consumption.

Select UHF frequency wireless microphone:

– There is a need to use on professional sound stages , TV shows, large concerts, large space, outdoor .

– Want to buy a microphone to use stably, limit interference, howling to the maximum.

– Choose microphones with diverse frequency ranges, do not worry about overlapping waves when using multiple microphones in the same area.
